He can only attack(poorly i might add), he cant debate. He will most likely wait until that issue is buried before posting again or avoid it completely.[/quote]

I guess you were wrong moron.

When you dropped out of school did you make your Mommy cry?

I responded by talking about better alternatives to pot use. (Just exactly how dumb are you?)

[quote]Yes, but they are more expensive and therefore inaccessible to people that aren’t as filthy, stinking rich as romonid - and that is the bigger issue.

Pot is a cheap alternative to deal with the side effects of cancer medications…you do know that don’t you…you patronizing SOB.

"Absolute nonsense! I had a friend who had cancer and he was not wealthy yet had the opportunity to take every imaginable cancer drug that there was. He never “needed” or asked for pot.

This is just one more (really lousy) excuse for those who smoke pot to rationalize it’s legalization. Very transparent and not at all necessary.

Hey, if you like smoking pot just say “I like smoking pot, and wish it were legal.”

Is that so hard?[/quote]

This too was responded to properly and completely!

Better ones? according to whom? You, Doctors, or people who actually have cancer? Who do you think should get to make the choice about which one works best?

It seems that I’ve had this conversation just a little while ago. The claim was made that pot worked better than the many other cancer drugs. And when I asked the poster to produce the evidence well…he just couldn’t do it.

Maybe you can do it? Can you? I really would love to see all of the peer reviewed studies which conclusively prove that pot is better all of what we now have available. It sure would make a believer out of me.

After all I can say that pink mushrooms are good for cancer. But maybe I just like to eat pink mushrooms.

Give me the evidence or just say you want pot legalized because you like it.

Simple huh?"

No one claimed that, the only claim made in this thread is that pot is a good alternative and Romney wants to restrict it.

Need i go on[/quote]

Wow…no don’t go on you are wasting my time and the time of anyone who has engaged this thread for serious conversation. In short you are an idiot. To quickly summarize the poster above claimed that it should be left up to the patient and my response is that we need justification in the form of actual research that determines the best drug that fits the disease. You are making me pine away for the the days when the pro legalization crowds best argument was “it’s a plant maaaaan.”

Yet your responding, am i getting to you old man pointing out your ignorance.

Go away junior you are playing out of your league and it shows.[/quote]

I suppose theres no fool, like an old fool.[/quote]

Or like an uneducated idiot.

(I know you have a difficult time with even the not so subtle comment so to be sure I am referring to you)

Your still ignoring the fact that you ignore posts that counter your opinion and manipulate other peoples words.

Not quite Sparky, I refuted each of the comments that you took so long to paste. Go on back and take a look again.

If there is one that you don’t think I refuted you need to offer it up as evidence that you are correct.

(I’ll guide you don’t worry)

And if that’s you in the avatar you need to correct your posture. Because when you grow up you don’t want to walk around with slumped shoulders.

People are not as dumb as law makers assume. Whether drugs are legal or not, the number of people abusing them will not change. Most people don’t care if something is illegal. If they want to do it, they will. Look no further than the number of inmates in jails and prisons in America for proof.

The vast majority of people are not mentally weak enough or stupid enough to abuse drugs, especially when they are paying for them. People who have a good health insurance policy through their employer that covers 100% of prescription drug costs, and whose doctor keeps prescribing them drugs to line his/her pockets, are the more likely to abuse drugs than anyone else. There’s something about the fact that it’s FREE that attracts weaker people to drugs.

Of course, government’s definition of abuse is ridiculously low, so they can justify employing people to enforce it. These are the people who define binge drinking as 4 drinks or more in one night.

For the record, alcohol is the only drug I use and I use it sparingly. I’ve never tried any “hard drugs” and I’ve never smoked anything. Even though cigars and such are legal, I’ve just never had the desire to smoke anything. With that said, if you want to abuse heroin and it kills you, who am I to judge? It’s your body, and you should be free to do what you’d like to it.

I responded by talking about better alternatives to pot use. (Just exactly how dumb are you?)

[quote]Yes, but they are more expensive and therefore inaccessible to people that aren’t as filthy, stinking rich as romonid - and that is the bigger issue.

Pot is a cheap alternative to deal with the side effects of cancer medications…you do know that don’t you…you patronizing SOB.

"Absolute nonsense! I had a friend who had cancer and he was not wealthy yet had the opportunity to take every imaginable cancer drug that there was. He never “needed” or asked for pot.

This is just one more (really lousy) excuse for those who smoke pot to rationalize it’s legalization. Very transparent and not at all necessary.

Hey, if you like smoking pot just say “I like smoking pot, and wish it were legal.”

Is that so hard?[/quote]

This too was responded to properly and completely!

Better ones? according to whom? You, Doctors, or people who actually have cancer? Who do you think should get to make the choice about which one works best?

It seems that I’ve had this conversation just a little while ago. The claim was made that pot worked better than the many other cancer drugs. And when I asked the poster to produce the evidence well…he just couldn’t do it.

Maybe you can do it? Can you? I really would love to see all of the peer reviewed studies which conclusively prove that pot is better all of what we now have available. It sure would make a believer out of me.

After all I can say that pink mushrooms are good for cancer. But maybe I just like to eat pink mushrooms.

Give me the evidence or just say you want pot legalized because you like it.

Simple huh?"

No one claimed that, the only claim made in this thread is that pot is a good alternative and Romney wants to restrict it.

Need i go on[/quote]

Wow…no don’t go on you are wasting my time and the time of anyone who has engaged this thread for serious conversation. In short you are an idiot. To quickly summarize the poster above claimed that it should be left up to the patient and my response is that we need justification in the form of actual research that determines the best drug that fits the disease. You are making me pine away for the the days when the pro legalization crowds best argument was “it’s a plant maaaaan.”

Yet your responding, am i getting to you old man pointing out your ignorance.

Sorry thought I did answer it. There was a lot of fast and furious posting going on.

Anyway, I am personally opposed to the use of those things. While alcohol is good for the heart (some research suggests) it is absolutely bad for the liver. And nothing has to be said about cigarettes that one is obvious. Maybe there’s something inherently bad about sucking smoke into your lungs huh? I rarely touch sugar I’ve been a natural food guy for a long time.

I’ll give you my opinion on that. No. The ban on alcohol should be ignored by friendly flatfeet and local and state government officals who protect the speakeasies, the numbers games and the broads. They get paid off by organised crime, which of course will be controlled by the Italians, Irish and Jews. They in turn will control the unions and the Democratic Party. Any moral crusaders or nosey journalists get made an offer they can’t refuse.

I disagree with this

AS much as im loath to admit it prescription drugs, are the only real option. Provided you have insurance they are affordable, if you don’t i guess your just sol but, a responsible will have in order not to have to fall back on COBRA and become a burden to the state. The benefits of medicinal marijuana don’t really outweigh the social costs. Anyone can go doctor shopping to acquire medical marijuana, no real disease needed.Just like alcohol, trans fats,sugar, and tobacco consumption is unhealthy, and i think we can all agree that the less used the better. Furthermore crime skyrockets in neighborhoods where dispensaries pop up, mostly targeted at the dispensaries workers.

Let’s see because of it’s illegality Marijuana is comparably the price of gold . With none of the security features that banks and precious metals dealers .

There would be no social cost to legalize it.

The defense of Medical Marijuana being misused is like saying look at all those people abusing aspirin .Marijuana’s analgesic effect is like aspirin not like morphine

I would have to agree a chronic user could have issues with the smoke and to be honest I have seen some that became paranoid and IMO could develop mental issues . But in my 40 years experience with marijuana those are the only down sides I could see

This is a tough one. I like dk44’s and ZEB’s arguments best, though.

Like dk44, I believe that people should be able to use any drug they wish. People should be able to smoke, drink, eat, inject, or shoot themselves in the face with a pistol. All different forms of self-destruction to various degrees. I’m for small government.

HOWEVER, this utopian libertarian belief can only be implemented when those same people ARE NOT getting paid to be unemployed, disabled, retarded, or otherwise incapacitated as a result of their habits. If a 600lb fat motherfucker goes to the ER without insurance, someone is going to foot that bill until he can pay it (which he probably never will). Wrong answer. If the government is going to promote personal responsibility ONLY THEN do I agree with dk44.

Those people should be left to their own devices with no government help. Here, I agree with ZEB on a multitude of other issues that would require the government to tell people to go fuck themselves when they bitch and moan about their problems.

My mother was the same way , she died from a systemic infection that resulted from the drug Remicade . The drug is used to supress the immune system when some one has an auto immune disorder. But I tried to get my mom to try marijuana first and her response was that is illegal there for immoral.

Most of the drugs they use for disease have many bad side effects and many people die from the different treatments

I’m assuming you are for criminalizing tabacco, alcohol, and the excessive use of salt too. Cause I can give you a ton of research proving all that is unhealthy.[/quote]

Then you an argue for the legalization of heroin and other hard drugs, right?[/quote]

No. I’m against you locking people up to prevent them from using them though.[/quote]

Why do you want to punish (in any way) people for consuming something that is unhealthy. It appears you have a(one more) problem with your argument.[/quote]

Uh, I just said I was against punishing them…
